I had a data set with 11 million points. I ended up splitting it into chunks of no more the 2 million points. I would make sure there is sufficient overlap in your polygons used to select sub regions for TIN creation, this help eliminate triangle side length errors producing 'slivers'. Also make sure your selection area regions are created with the polygon tool not the rectangle tool. All rectangles should be N-S/E-W oriented i.e. - at right angels. When you've made each sub-region of points into individual TIN's then your can use the stamp tool to build the larger grid.

What is the maximum number of points that may be processed when creating a TIN? I have close to 12 million points and keep getting an out of memory error. I just put 1.5 GB of memory in my machine. What is the most points anyone else has used? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Leith C.
